Who’s doing good music works?  I feel so fortunate that my work allows me to do what I love.  Music, song writing, producing, art and expressing myself creatively must be  part of my DNA.  Hunk-Ta-Bunk-Ta music has led me to share my songs all over the world. Through this passion I have been able to establish some amazing friendships with others doing important work through music.

In this post, I would like to highlight some of these people so that everyone has some exciting new resources.
